Past Events

The leadership of the  PEMPAL network met on July 8-10, 2024 in Vienna, Austria.

The objectives of the meeting were to:

• familiarize and/or update the COPs’ Executive Committees with the PFM practices in Austria,
• review PEMPAL’s up-to-date progress and get COPs’ perspectives,
• brainstorm for PEMPAL beyond FY25, and
• plan for the whole-of-network meeting (tentatively proposed for Spring 2025).

The event included three days of meetings. Around 50 participants attended. Following the tradition of PEMPAL Leadership meetings, the first day of the meeting was dedicated to familiarization with the PFM system of the hosting country. The second day of the meeting was devoted to reporting on PEMPAL’s up-to-date progress and COPs’ perspectives and to brainstorming for PEMPAL beyond FY25. The first part of the morning of the third day was used to initiate the planning of the whole-of-network PEMPAL meeting in FY25. Finally, the event concluded with a meeting of the PEMPAL Steering Committee, an oversight body for the PEMPAL program comprising representatives of the program donors, as well as Chairs and Deputy Chairs of COPs’ Executive Committees.
